Real Madrid are reportedly planning a shock £90million raid for Premier League duo Marcus Rashford and Christian Eriksen.

Santiago Solari is desperate to bolster his struggling squad after a disastrous start to the season that sees them languish down in sixth spot, four points behind La Liga leaders Barcelona.

Los Blancos have enjoyed an upturn in fortunes since Solari took over at the Bernabeu, but the Argentine wants to put his own stamp on his squad and is eyeing January reinforcements.

Bosses failed to replace Cristiano Ronaldo when he quit the club for Juventus in the summer, and chiefs have earmarked Rashford as the player to fill the void.

Scouts watched the Manchester United forward in Sunday’s 2-1 UEFA Nations League win over Croatia and the Spanish giants are preparing a £50million bid, according to The Sun.

Meanwhile, Tottenham star Eriksen is also on their radar.

The Dane has 18 months remaining on his current deal but is yet to agree fresh terms in north London.

Real are set to test their resolve with a £40million January offer.
